In Re: Arborist letter
To Whom it May Concern:
Upon inspection of the property, I found the following trees that require removal:
1. 3 Cabbage palms
2. 1- 10-inch Magnolia tree
3. 1- 12-inch Pine tree
4. 1- 10-inch Maple tree
The trees referenced above pose an unnecessary risk to person and to property. Two of the
palms are growing up against the large Century Live oak trees on the property. They are growing into
the trunks of the oaks and the crown of the palms are rubbing against the branches of the oak. One
palm is covered in vines and leans over the swimming pool. The trees are a hazard and should be
removed.
The Magnolia tree is also growing up against a Century Live Oak tree. The rotos are growing
together. The crown of the Maples’ tree is also growing and rubbing on the Lie oak branches. This
creates a hazard to the Oak tree and therefore, the Magnolia tree should be removed.
The Pine tree is covered in vines and is suffering from root rot. This is evident in the thin
canopy and discoloration of the pine needles. The tree is a hazard and should be removed.
The Maple tree is also suffering from root rot. This is evident in the thin canopy and small
leaves. The tree is a hazard and should be removed.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
